2nd gen IFS *measurement request*

I just searched a dozen or more threads and only found approximate info.
Can a few of you guys measure the distance inbetween the rear lower control drop arms? I need the measurement from the lowest part of the inside walls (where an IFS brace/truss goes).

Mine is exactly 17 1/4" and i'm thinking it might be tweaked. Before i put a truss on, i wanted to know what other 4runners measure.
Thanks in advance.

I get 17" exactly. This was measured from the faces of the steel closest to the center of the truck. But mine might be tweaked too.

Thanks Robin.
Come on people...I need at least 3 or 4 more and it only takes a couple minutes to measure. By comparing, we'll know how much space there should be.
